## macOS - Install with Packages (Beginner)

The simplest way to install these geospatial libraries is to install the latest version of [Kyng Chaos's pre-built package](https://www.kyngchaos.com/software/frameworks) for GDAL Complete. Be aware that several other libraries are also installed, including the UnixImageIO, SQLite3, and `NumPy`.

After downloading the package in the link above, you will need to double-click the cardbord box icon to complete the installation. Depending on your security settings, you may get an error message about "unidentified developers". You can enable the installation by following [these instructions](https://kb.wisc.edu/page.php?id=25443) for installing programs from unidentified developers.

## macOS - Install with Homebrew (Advanced)
## macOS - Install with Homebrew

Alternatively, participants who are comfortable with the command line can install the geospatial libraries individually using [homebrew](https://brew.sh):

```bash
$ brew install proj
$ brew install geos
$ brew install pkg-config
$ brew install gdal
```
Once GDAL is installed, you will be able to install the `sf` package from source in R. With the current version of `proj` on homebrew, installation requires additional configuration:

```bash
install.packages("sf", type="source", configure.args. = "--with-proj-lib=$(brew --prefix)/lib/")
```
